On the traditional first day of the summer window in the Premier League, the deal that will see Nathaniel Clyne depart Southampton for Liverpool is officially done.

Liverpool get their man for a reported £10m with an additional £2.5m in incentives that could be paid to the Saints based on the right back's performance. With Glen Johnson having moved on after his contract expired, the starting gig has virtually no competition for the new signing, and fantasy managers should count on seeing his name on Brendan Rodgers' first XI of the season. It shouldn't take long for Clyne to adapt to his new surroundings either - he has former teammates Adam Lallana, Ricky Lambert and Dejan Lovren to welcome him in. Jul 1 - 7:53 AM

Nathaniel Clyne has been pictured leaving a Merseyside hospital as his move to Liverpool is close to being completed in a deal said to be worth around $16 million with a further $4 million in add-ons.

Clyne will become the sixth signing of the window joining Milner, Bogdan, Firmino, Gomez and Ings as Brendan Rodgers revamps his squad in an attempt to challenge for domestic honours. Clyne has been pivotal during his time at St Marys’ and started all but 3 BPL games last season but having entered the final year of his contract Southampton could not risk losing their England international for nothing after the player refused a new and improved $70k per week offer. His arrival is likely to mean Emre Can is moved centrally possibly in a holding midfield role although the versatile German under-21 is capable of playing in a number of positions. Jun 29 - 12:44 PM

Liverpool are in position to secure the transfer of Nathaniel Clyne from Southampton for a fee of £12.5m.

Clyne has been linked to an Anfield move before the summer even began and now the deal is looking imminent. The Reds sent an initial 10m offer only to have it countered with a 15m demand by the Saints. The proposed 12.5m deal would appear to be the result of a good old-fashioned compromise. With Soton already prepared for Clyne's loss by signing Cedric last week, Ronald Koeman's side hopes to not skip a beat without Clyne the same way the addition of Ryan Bertrand did so after the club sold off Luke Shaw. Meanwhile, Clyne will have plenty of fantasy buzz heading into next season with his new club. Jun 25 - 12:10 PM

The move was almost finished yesterday but it is now complete and officially announced by Southampton. The Portuguese right-back comes to Southampton on a four-year deal and is expected to be Nathaniel Clyne's replacement. Clyne is rumored to be leaving for Liverpool this summer and Southampton had to bring in a replacement for him. Soares is a solid right-back that is only 23 years old and can still improve at Southampton. He should be a very good fantasy defender and smart managers will draft him if he sneaks into the middle rounds of fantasy drafts. Jun 18 - 10:29 AM

The move was almost finished yesterday but it is now complete and officially announced by Southampton. The Portuguese right-back comes to Southampton on a four-year deal and is expected to be Nathaniel Clyne's replacement. Clyne is rumored to be leaving for Liverpool this summer and Southampton had to bring in a replacement for him. Soares is a solid right-back that is only 23 years old and can still improve at Southampton. He should be a very good fantasy defender and smart managers will draft him if he sneaks into the middle rounds of fantasy drafts.

Southampton and Sporting Lisbon have agreed to terms that will see right back Cedric Soares arriving to St. Mary's for a fee in the region of £3.5m.

With rumors heavy that Nathaniel Clyne will be whisked away this summer, Southampton have already appeared to find their replacement. The 23 year old also has international experience with Portugal to go along with a club resume that includes winning the Portuguese Cup this past season. It is Ronald Koeman's second signing in as many days and should be on every fantasy manager's watchlist.

Liverpool are set to make another bid for Southampton defender Nathaniel Clyne.

Southampton rejected a £10m bid for Clyne, who is likely worth quite more than that, and Liverpool will continue their pursuit of the player. Clyne is a solid right-back who can get up and attack, which on paper seems like a good fit for Liverpool. He is an England international who has plenty of experience in the Premier League and is young enough to be able to still improve, a great combination for any player. Expect his price to rise quickly. His fantasy value should be about the same regardless of whether he plays for Liverpool or Southampton next season.

Southampton are reportedly shopping for a right back and are close to signing Sporting Lisbon's Cedric Soares.

Soares is a 23-year-old right back and is available on a fee in the region of €5m, although a €5m bid from Stoke was rejected recently. Soares could be the replacement for Nathaniel Clyne, who is rumored to be leaving Southampton this summer. If the Saints can sell Clyne and bring in Soares, they will likely do a great piece of business again as Clyne's price will be much more than €5m for just a small dropoff in quality. In the meantime, the Saints claim they are still holding healthy talks with Clyne and Morgan Schneiderlin about their futures.

With Manchester United's interest apparently waning, Liverpool have launched a bid for Nathaniel Clyne and had it rejected by Southampton.

With only one year left on his current deal, Nathaniel Clyne could likely be had for a very reasonable sum if the right club comes calling with the right amount of money. Apparently Liverpool and £10 million were not the right combination to persuade Southampton to part with their right back. Liverpool are expected to continue to pursue their interest. Southampton are in a difficult spot as they try to decide whether to let Clyne go and cash in on what value he has remaining or continue to try to convince the player to sign an extension given that no Champions League club seems interested in acquiring Clyne.

Jose Fonte has revealed that he is trying to persuade Morgan Schneiderlin and Nathaniel Clyne to stay at Southampton this summer.

Both Schneiderlin and Clyne are being pursued by big clubs and rumors has it that one or both will leave Southampton this summer. The Saints captain Jose Fonte is trying to change that as he's lobbying both players to stay in Southampton. The Saints have a good chance at a European competition next season if they can win points at Manchester City this weekend but things aren't entirely in their hands as they need Tottenham and Liverpool to drop points as well. Their qualification for the Europa Cup could be the determining factor on whether or not Clyne and Schneiderlin are sold.

Nathaniel Clyne has continued his impressive season, finishing with 16 fantasy points this week and making the Best XI once again.

Southampton didn't score on Wednesday but Clyne found a way to rack up the points regardless. He intercepted four passes, won three fouls, won a corner and a tackle, and had a successful cross to add on to the clean sheet points he earned. He's averaged 9.75 points over the last four weeks and 10 points per match over the season and should be owned in all leagues. His 1.51% ownership in the Yahoo! game is extremely low and those looking to make up ground should add him as a differential play despite his high price tag.

Southampton right-back Nathaniel Clyne is likely to miss out on gameweek 20 with an ankle problem.

Clyne is a big part of Southampton's defense but they have the depth to cover for him. Clyne's ankle problem is not supposed to be a long-term issue and we believe he will return sooner rather than later. Ryan Bertrand returns to the squad and will be a boost for Southampton.

Nathaniel Clyne denied Aston Villa a much-needed win as his late goal rescued a point for a disappointing Southampton side.

What a couple of weeks it has been for Clyne, who built on his two England caps during the international break with another fine performance and the equalising goal in the Monday night Premier League match. The right-back smashed home Ryan Bertrand's cross with just nine minutes remaining after Gabriel Agbonlahor had put Villa ahead in the first half after an error from Fraser Forster. The Saints were far from their best but dominated the second half, and their pressure finally told to provide Ronald Koeman's men a deserved point.

Liverpool are rumored to be interested in Southampton defender Nathaniel Clyne.

Liverpool bought half of Southampton's roster last summer but apparently it wasn't enough. The club are now interested in Nathaniel Clyne, who recently made his England debut and has been simply fantastic this whole season. If history is any indication, Southampton will likely be willing to sell Clyne for the right fee. We would assume his value decreases in the case of a transfer as Liverpool's defense doesn't seem anywhere close to Southampton's at the moment.

Southampton left-back Nathaniel Clyne made an impressive international debut in England's 3-1 win over Slovenia.

The 23-year old was given a start and played very well throughout the entire match. He made runs down the left flank and looked dangerous creating chances. He was solid defensively and further cemented his reputation as a rising star. Expect to see more of him as he looks to have the job for now.

After a stunning 40-yard strike by Nathaniel Clyne helped knock Arsenal out of the Capital One Cup Tuesday, Southampton manager, Ronald Koeman, believes that he's on course to become the latest of the club’s players to be capped by England.

Ronald Koeman: "I think he is ready. He has a lot of experience. He is playing very well from the beginning of the season and scored a great goal [against Arsenal]. His performances are very good and he is an option for the national coach but I’m very happy to have him in our team because he brings a lot of quality and experience. It is very important for the team." Clyne is the third-highest scoring defender in Yahoo's PL Fantasy game right now.
